As for us at Pitt, after Sherrill left for Aggie, we spent the next 40 years wandering the desert just like the Jews after the exodus from Egypt. We had a bit of success under Walt Harris and then some under Wanny. We had mediocrity perfectly average under Chryst. Narduzzi has done a good job righting the ship. Pitt has, and always will be, its own worst enemy.

Pretty much the same for Auburn. Auburn has always been its own worst enemy.

Colorado has been a stumbling drunk since the hiring of Hawkins in 2006.  Hope Sanders can turn us around and get up back into the top 20 again.  We had a nice 50 year run minus the last 2 years of Fairbanks and the first 3 years of Mac in the 80's.
